Transform your PC into a HIL laboratory

“Virtual HIL Device” is a software-based emulator of the HIL402 real-time device. It allows you to

use the entire Typhoon HIL software tool-chain without the actual HIL device. As such,

Virtual HIL Device can help you expand your HIL knowledge and also simplify your

teaching, projects and research, as you can experiment in the offline mode with Virtual HIL

Device and use the actual HIL device only when you need real-time capabilities.

Virtual HIL Device is the closest thing to the real time hardware in the loop simulator, which allows you to:

• Experience what actual HIL testing looks like, using the same HIL tool-chain with all of its advanced features, but without a HIL real-time device. • Develop, simulate and verify models that are only one click away from real-time execution.

• Speed up the development of models and test scripts, regardless of the how many HIL devices you have.

• Run all your existing models, developed for your actual HIL device, in non-real-time without any modification

All the Tools you will ever need, in one place.

HIL SCADA

In software mode, all the contactor states are directly set in Control Panel, while in hardware mode they are controlled

by an assigned digital input pin.

Go beyond monitoring. Make things happen with programmable action widgets. HIL SCADA can do more than just monitor what is going on within your HIL testbed. Its action widgets allow you to

reconfigure your HIL testbed on the fly. Turn loads on and off, change voltages, insert harmonics, trigger islanding

conditions… throw a lifetime of standard and emergency situations at your device in just a couple of clicks on HIL

SCADA buttons, combo boxes and sliders. The monitoring widgets immediately show and record the DUT’s response,

of course, all in real time. Based on Typhoon HIL API, action widgets of HIL SCADA are fully programmable and can

use both global and macro-specific variables, opening the door for full test automation.

HIL SCADA enables interactive real-time interfacing with your

Hardware in the Loop Emulator. Route any of your system variables to

any of the analog output channels and adjust the gain and offset.

Program your voltage and current sources, visualize waveforms, and

load them “on the fly” to emulate grid and inject disturbances. Program

your PV panel I-V characteristics and illumination levels. Interactively

load your machine and change mechanical loading parameters. Directly

control all your digital inputs and set their values with a simple drop

down menu. Choose software or hardware control for your contactors.

Interact with simulation

Capture and Scope

ScriptEditor

The Script Editor (with the graphical programming feature) to help you to develop

converter and microgrid test scripts.

HIL SCADA is the part of Typhoon HIL’s software tool-chain that makes it easy to control and

reconfigure your HIL testbed on the fly, visualize the results and build test procedures via Python

programmable action buttons. With a wide range of drag-and-drop UI (User Interface) elements, HIL

SCADA allows you to create your very own interface for all interactions with the HIL testbed. Every

single UI element in HIL SCADA can be freely arranged, resized and programmed, giving you a

complete freedom in how you monitor your simulation and how you interact with it.

Test Suite GUI

Pre-certify your control software in-house (For all major standards around the world)

Veteran engineers know that a failed certification is sure to introduce costly delays in product development plans, and increase time to market. To make things more challenging, grid codes evolve i.e. new regulations are introduced and existing ones are updated with the increasing emphasis on the performance of the control software. Finally, with every new market the certification risks multiply.

Let be realistic. There is one moment when even the hearts of hardened veteran engineers fill with anxiety and trepidation, and that is the time when a new product needs to get certified.

Test Suite allows unlimited repetition of standard-compliant tests that all but guarantee your success the first time you go to the certifying institute.

If there is a particular, test which you would like to have which is not included in the existing grid codes? Please let us know and we will be happy to develop it for you as a part of our service.

Test Suite eliminates the need to read and analyze hundreds of pages of various standards in order to prepare standard-compliant pre-certification reports that need to be sent to the official certifying body. Every individual test included in Test Suite will automatically generate a standard-compliant test report. When standards change, Test Suite is updated to match the new requirements. This way, you can enjoy a complete peace of mind in your certification activities, as Test Suite allows you to focus on the development of the product and not on the mechanical aspects of the content, layout, organization and format of your reports.

Test Suite, developed in cooperation with Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH (AIT), allows you to address these challenges in the most efficient way. You can think of the Test Suite as your personal, in-house, pre-certification institute featuring a growing selection of tests according to BDEW FGW TR3, IEC 62116, EN 50530, Rule 21 and UL 1741 (including the upcoming UL 1741 SA) grid codes.

Power Systems Toolbox (Enriched Microgrid Test-Bed Experience)

What is Power Systems Toolbox?

The big picture with high-fidelity real-time details

Energetic Macroscopic Representation (EMR)

Power Systems Toolbox brings models that specifically cater to the needs of microgrid and power system engineers such as phasor and power measurement devices and transformations (abc to dq, dq to abc, positive-negative zero power, symmetrical components, etc.) and exciters and governors (IEEE AC1A exciter, IEEE DC1A exciter, IEEE DC4B exciter, IEEE ST1A exciter, DEGOV Governor).

Out of the box, Power System Toolbox allows you to run typical real-time power system simulation scenarios focused on transmission grid needs. These scenarios include, to name but a few, protection systems tests, high-voltage direct current (HVDC) and static VAR compensator (SVC) hardware control validation.

However, thanks to the perfect integration with other toolboxes in Typhoon HIL’s Schematic Editor, such as Communication Toolbox and Signal Processing Toolbox, and thanks to the scalability of Typhoon HIL’s FPGA-based hardware simulators, Power Systems Toolbox also enables real-time simulation in scenarios which are extremely challenging for traditional simulation tools. For example, it is possible to test complex distribution system applications, such as multibus microgrid system applications or even comparatively large distribution networks with high-frequency power electronics converters. For model development and non-real-time test scenarios, you can also use the fully scalable Virtual HIL Testbed.

Power Systems Toolbox also integrates Energetic Macroscopic Representation (EMR) Toolbox which is designed for testing complex multi-physics systems, such as electromechanical systems with multi-drive subsystems. As EMR is based on the action-reaction principle, this allows you to take your simulation into the realm of multi-physics, which can also be extremely useful in testing the overall energetic behaviour of the system, no matter how small or big it may be. In short, EMR Toolbox allows you to clearly visualize and emulate the power flow in your system.
